Gunship Cannons uses Heat as a resource. Upon reaching 100 heat, the cannon becomes overheated and inactive for 3s.


Canons have 2 abilities:


Cannon Blast - a builderthat deals damage and increasing Heat by 6-10.


Incinerating Blast - a spender that consumes all the Heat and deal damage proportional to the heat consumed. The more heat, the higher the damage.
